A little past little rock

I had to leave my life in DallasThat town will always be youIn every crowd, on every cornerIn every face I'd see youSo with nothin' more than a tank of gas
I drove away without lookin' backAnd I guess that's how I got where I am
And goin' anywhere as fast as I can

And I'm a little past Little RockFurther down the lineToo soon to know what's up aheadToo late to change my mindI gotta keep my heart out of this and both hands on the wheelI'm learnin' more with every mile just how leavin' feelsIt's a lonely stretch of blacktop out into the blueDon't know where I'll go or what I'll do
I'm a little past Little RockBut a long way from over you

These headlights on the highwayDisappear into the darkAnd if I could have my wayI'd go back to where you areOh, but I can't turn this thing around
And nothing short of breaking downIs gonna get me off this road I'm on
Oh, and I'm still a far cry from gone

And I'm a little past Little RockFurther down the lineToo soon to know what's up aheadToo late to change my mindI gotta keep my heart out of this and both hands on the wheelI'm learnin' more with every mile just how leavin' feels
It's a lonely stretch of blacktop out into the blueDon't know where I'll go or what I'll doI'm a little past Little RockBut a long way from over you
